SENATECH INDIA PRIVATE LIMITED,GAUTAM BUDHA NAGAR vs. DCIT TP 3(2)(2), DELHI
What were the facts?
The assessee failed to furnish a transfer pricing study report and other required documents to the Transfer Pricing Officer (TPO) despite multiple notices. A penalty under Section 271G was levied for this non-compliance. The assessee argued that the notices were ambiguous and the TPO did not have adequate time to review the report when it was finally submitted.
What did the Tribunal hold?
The Tribunal held that the penalty notice issued under Section 271G was ambiguous as it did not specifically mention the documents or information required under Section 92D that were not furnished. Furthermore, when a specific notice under Section 92D(3) was issued, the assessee complied by submitting the transfer pricing report.
What were the issues?
Whether the penalty levied under Section 271G for failure to furnish information/documents under Section 92D is sustainable when the notice is ambiguous and the assessee subsequently complies with a specific notice.
Which sections of the Income-tax Act were involved?
